Alex had his 13th dilation today, which went very well. It had
been six weeks since his last one, so I was expecting that things would
be pretty tight in there, but they weren't. His surgeon, Dr.
Cohen, said that it was easy to dilate him and that he doesn't think
it's necessary to do any more scheduled dilations...that we could just
have them on an as needed basis. Actually, Dr. Cohen even said that
there was no evidence of a stricture (tightening) in his
esophagus. This is great obviously because he won't have to go in
very often (hopefully), and because it's a big step in getting him to a
more normal eating stage too. Yeah!
